This summer, we're enjoying our summer vacation staying home and exploring St. Louis and other areas of the show-me state. We're saving our travel fund for a weekend in Chicago this fall so we're pinching pennies where we can. Now that its July in Missouri and the heat and humidity is reaching dangerous levels, we've been spending a lot of time finding fun indoors.
One of our favorite ways to beat the summer heat when its too hot even for a pool visit is the dim lit, well air conditioned bowling alley. There's something about all of that cripsy fried bowling alley food and gooey chili cheese fries that I can't resist.
If you're in the mood for a cocktail or beer, they usually have very reasonable drink prices at the bar too. Best of all, did you know that kids all over the US can bowl for free all summer long? There are several participating military bowling centers for military families across the globe.
Sign your kids up at kidsbowlfree.com and they can bowl for 2 free games any day at any of the participating lanes listed on the program's website all summer long, just pay for shoe rentals. Kids Bowl Free also offers discount family passes so parents, siblings over the program age limit or other family members can get a great deal and join the fun. The pass allows up to 4 people . We love to go as a family or meet up with friends from school and let the kids bowl while the parents relax and watch.
Rhys and Olivia were a little nervous to bowl at first, since they didn't have any prior experience. If you think you're bad at bowling too, bumpers, ramps and light weight balls make bowling fun and easy for all age and skill levels. It's all for fun!
